Answer 1

U really dont wanna know how i got mine !!! lol

Answer 2

I play loads of online games, and most need an idea. Plenty of gamers use a consistent 'handle' or nickname to build a bit of a reputation.

I decided I needed one of these, as opposed to random gibberish.

So I thought of a violet let rarely used word.

Eviscerate: To dismember to cut, often in a brutal fashion.

Then to make it into a name, I changed it to evisiron.

Since then I have found the spelling is 'revision' if you move the 'r' and that no-one can pronounce it right after reading it. Really, I should spell it Evisceron, but I refuse to change it.

And now I can yell 'Its pronounced evisiron!" at people when I frag them in LAN games.

Good times ^^

Answer 3

My name comes from the DC graphic novel "Death in the Family." Specifically it's where the Joker beats Jason Todd (The second Robin.) half to death with a crowbar. Hence jokerscrowbar. Then he blows up the building that Jason and his mother are in. Granted it's a little twisted but then again so am I. What can I say? The Joker is my favorite comic book villian.

Ramrider is a Transformers fan character I came up with a few years back for an online game. I adopted the name for myself and I use it all over the place now.

He used to look like the picture below, although he's since been redesigned.

Answer 5

I went thru a painstaking process where I went thru the novel war and peace and picked out every 5th word and then took every 2nd letter and made a note of this, I then went back 5 letters from the chosen one, mixed them all up and devised my id, and the name crash is just sooooo telling of my personality I kept it. This process took 72 hours and 13 minutes. But it was all worth it and might I just add that war and peace is truly a wonderful read

Answer 6

Mine comes from a song named "21st. Century Schizoid Man" from a progressive rock band named King Crimson, from their first album named "In The Court of the Crimson King", I love this song and I think its lirics still alive and a cool nick name too.

The pict comes from the album cover "Dark Side of the Moon" from Pink Floyd... Am I in love with music?

Answer 7

I used this name as a fake name while i entered it as a real name to keep my identity hidden. Crow R is a short name for Crow T Robot. The loveable robot in MST3K. My fave sci fi show ever.

Answer 11

I make up words in order to try not to swear so much. Cobblers is an (i think) irish expression used by someone to tell you that you are talking rubbish. I talk a lot of rubbish and i am irish but i like Italian sounding names and thought cobblers was a bit boring so............. You know i never realised i put so much thought into that until i wrote it down. Excellent question, thanks!
